Definition

The NPI of Ordering Provider represents the individual who requested the service or items being reported on this service line. Example include, but are not limited to, provider ordering diagnostic tests and medical equipment or supplies.

[Ordering provider information is only captured at the line level in the X12 837P format but in v3.0.0 of the T-MSIS file layout it is only captured at the header level. This discrepancy will be addressed in a future version of the T-MSIS OT file layout. Until Ordering provider information has been moved from the T-MSIS claim header to the line, there is no need to report it at the header.]
